Baby Noah

I have another new nephew!! My brother Daniel, his wife Emily, and their boys Andersen and Henry welcomed baby Noah on 08/15/11 (sometime early in the morning) 7 lbs 10 oz. We can't wait to finally meet this little guy!!

6th Grader!!

Justin is a 6th grader! How did this happen? Who gave him permission to grow up? Time sure flies! I love you buddy!
... and with a new school year comes a new football season! Go Braves!!

Ouch!

Ash had an altercation with my headboard... The headboard won. Scars are cool, right?! Ash was super excited to visit Papa in his hospital to have his staples removed! Dad just finished up a heart surgery when we arrived... which is why he's sporting such an awesome hat and mask :)

Clayton Arthur Edgson

I'm a new aunt again!! My sister Katie and her husband Nic welcomed a beautiful baby boy this past weekend. Clayton Arthur Edgson was born on 7/9/11 at 3:49am. 8 lbs, 20 inches, and LOTS of beautiful dark hair! We are totally in love with this little man :)

Lake Powell 2011

Worst Blogger EVER award... RIGHT HERE!!

Sorry...

I'll try to be better :)

So we just got back from a fantastic trip to Lake Powell with some amazing friends. Much better weather this time! Can't wait to go back!

Ashton stayed home going on tractors with Dardi and Papa, and doing construction on his "work site" with Meema!! He had a blast!!

Coconut Cream Pie

Do your kids ask to bring a coconut home every time you visit the grocery store? Mine do... and I always say NO... until now. I caved. We bought a coconut, and brought it home. When we unloaded the groceries I said, "well, now what?" to Justin, who just shrugged his shoulders. So after some thought we decided to see if we could make coconut cream pie from an actual coconut. I decided to document the occasion, since it probably won't happen again :) LOL!!
